People's Choice Awards Nominations 2014

I'm excited that so many of our shows are included in this years People's Choice Awards Nominations. You can vote now on the nominations, and the show will air on January 8, 2014. Awards season has officially begun! Now let's take a look at the nominations that includes shows we talk about here at Hexed...

Tatiana Maslay in Orphan Black

It's not surprize to see many familiar and favourite names in Favorite Sci-Fi/Fantasy TV Actor and Favorite Sci-Fi/Fantasy TV Actress categoriews, I can easily agree with many of the noms of Andrew Lincoln, Ian Somerhalder, Jared Padalecki, Jensen Ackles and Stephen Amell; and for the ladies Emilia Clarke, Ginnifer Goodwin, Kristin Kreuk, Nina Dobrev and Tatiana Maslany. For acting chops we also have Jonathan Rhys Meyers and Joseph Morgan Favorite Actor in a New TV Series nominated for Dracula and The Originals (assumed) respectively, although I think it's a bit of a cheat to have Joseph Morgan considered he played Klaus on Vampire Diaries for several seasons. That being said, I would still probably vote for him as his acting really is that good.

Joseph Morgan as Klaus

Chemistry is always important between characters, and in the Favorite On-Screen Chemistry the heat gets turned up with a nom of Damon & Elena - The Vampire Diaries. And they give it up to the boys too with Favorite TV Bromance nom going to Sam, Dean & Castiel for Supernatural. Although, does it count as a bromance, if 2 of the 3 are brothers? I would vote form them anyway!

I'm sure we'll talk about if we consider Rick Grimes from The Walking Dead an antihero, as he is nominated in the Favorite TV Anti-Hero category along with Dexter Morgan - Dexter, Jaime Lannister - Game of Thrones, Norman Bates - Bates Motel and Walter White - Breaking Bad.

For shows as a whole, the ones we talk about here dominated the Favorite Sci-Fi/Fantasy TV Show category with nominations going to Beauty and the Beast, Once Upon A Time, Supernatural, The Vampire Diaries and The Walking Dead. I wonder if one day we'll see enough of these shows that we might even get a category for horror as well, as a few of those do blur the lines of Sci-Fi/Fantasy to the beyond.

I think the Favorite New TV Drama is one that is always interesting to watch, and of the shows we talk about all of Marvel's Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D., Dracula, Once Upon a Time in Wonderland, The Originals, Reign, Sleepy Hollow and The Tomorrow People were all nominated! Last year's winner was Beauty and the Beast. I wonder what this years will be?

Interesting to see that both American Horror Story and The White Queen are in the Favorite TV Movie/Miniseries (along with Sharknado). I wonder where the line between a regular show, and a miniseries is?
